This lucky little book has become part of a larger box of books I sent to a 'New 5th grade teacher in dire need'!

According to this teachers friend, who is a wonderful Bookcrossing member on this site:

"Nikki's daughter is a new 5the grade teacher in upstate NY, and in DIRE need of books! Once given her room, she found she has nothing. Well, virtually nothing: 4 books each for math, science, and social studies. I'm searching thrifts here for appropriate books in good shape to send, and am asking for any bookcrossers who can, to help out. If you have any books, please pm and I'll send you the address. Thanks!"

How could anyone resist helping out a new and enthusiastic teacher and a bunch of excited kids? Not me!

So off a box goes to make merry!

"What is BookCrossing?'

It's the World's Library. It's a smart social networking site. It's a celebration of literature and a place where books get new life. BookCrossing is the act of giving a book a unique identity so, as the book is passed from reader to reader, it can be tracked and thus connecting its readers. There are currently 1,217,936 BookCrossers and 10,415,496 books travelling throughout 132 countries. Our community is changing the world and touching lives one book at a time.

This book is yours to keep, or read and pass on. Whichever you prefer is always ok!

We hope that you'll leave a journal entry here on where you found the book, or what you intend to do with it, or what you think of it. Anything you like really.
